2013 Soap Box Derby

Here are a few pictures from last weekend’s Cub Scout Soap Box Derby.

Soap Box Derby

Last Thursday was the annual Cub Scout Soap Box derby.  After a mild (even cold) winter it was probably our first taste of what summer will have in store.  A hot, dry, dusty, windy day.  Still, it wasn’t unbearable and the event went well.  Kai won two of his three races which he was pretty excited about.

Soap Box Derby

This last weekend was the Cub Scout Soap Box Derby or “Serp Box Derby” as Nora calls it.  The day started out perfect with warm temps but some cloud cover.  By the time the Tiger Scouts started racing at noon, however, the clouds had disappeared and the sun was out in force.  With plenty of sunscreen though we avoided any major sunburns.  For those familiar with Dhahran the race started at the top of Peninsula (the perimeter road) near Rainbow.  There is a good hill there and along with the starting ramp they managed to build up some speed as they raced towards the jebels.
